On my 2500 Barton i noticed a 7 celsius drop when overclocked to 3500+ish On my friends Pentium 4 2.4c oc'd to 3.4ghz, he noticed a 10 degree drop (Celsius)!!!
As we all know by now, Silver is the highest conductive material thats reasonably priced(isnt it od that human culture chose materials to be considered "precious" that would someday be in high demand by the computer industry?),But do you know WHY Arctic silver is so good? Because its micronized, The bits of silver are broken down to microscopic size, so that they fill ALL the spaces (even microscopic!) between the heatsink,and the processor.Which brings us to another point: Sand down those heatsinks with very fine grit sand paper.
AS5 is also a Phase change material,meaning that the paste goes thru a physical change over the first 200 hours of "burn in". You will notice the difference as your cpu temps drop constantly.
Now only if we could get those cheap man made diamonds micronized into a paste..
Let me start out by saying i am a die hard AMD fan,However - in the two most important processor measurements,; MFLOPS(Million FLoating OPerations per Second),and MIPS(Million Instructions Per Second),the P4 accels.
In fact, even after over clocking my Barton 2500+ from 1.87 ghz to 2.45 ghz(3200+ is 2.2ghz mind you),i STILL can't touch a stock pentium 3.2 ghz with 800mhz fsb...or a 2.4 clocked to 3.2:-)
People say that a longer pipeline is going to cause a lot of problems,and be slow, but this is not true because of 3 simple reasons; More Advanced Hypertheading,Faster MhZ,Larger Caches. Honestly either 1 of those 3 solutions would solve any of the problems,but intel will be introducing all 3 of them,With the most obvious improvement coming from clockspeed.
For single processor* crunching numbers,especially ones that have been optimized with SSL2 goodness, you just can't beat the pentium 4.
If you want to go dual proc or more for science..well then theres nothing like an AMD opteron.
I'm not going to upgrade my proc until Intel introduces the "socket T" And AMD introduces the socket 939 (I suggest you guys wait too)and both of them are running well and have proven to be highly overclockable.

In texas we just passed a law that forces companies to let us keep a constant mobile phone number while switching companies.
Just wait until the evil us government makes all the EU citizens wear GPS RFID tags embedded in their skin..then we can track/zap you with our space-lasers.
"what about soldiers who want to bring cases against the gov't or anyone else for that matter? "Sorry son, you're in Cuba now, you don't get those kinds of freedoms."
o0t!
Please stop saying it is,English is germanic - it used to be called Western German. Now, Latin and German share an ancient root language,but latin is NOT a root of english.
I'd like to see a computer learn a more random game..eventually a computer will be able to memorize enough data to beat humans at a memorization game,but true intellect is the dynamic application of knowledge. If a computer could beat Bobby at a game of FRC,THEN i would be impressed.

They used Engrish instead of English,causes slight translation problems!
